I have a few sets of 10 gridseeds. They were advertised at 3.3 Mh/s per set. My actual hashing speed is 2.84 Mh/s, which is about 86% efficiency.

Are the new ASIC's advertised hashing speed estimated? Or have they been verified/tested as accurate speeds (e.g. 54 Mh/s for the War Machine)?

Mine were running at 360 kh/s each, are you dual mining or not using cg. I have found cgminer gave me the best results

Anyone curious about set up for the A2 Innosilicon can reference my initial thoughts here www.MinerStuff.com I had a few hurdles getting it going, but they were pretty simple. I know it can be difficult to set up new equipment when it doesn't come with a manual. I will be fleshing out a more in depth guide soon. Also, GAWminers stands by their word! My A2 Innosilicon miner came today and I am thrilled to have it before a holiday weekend.

Could someone from GAWminers pm me? I have a sales questions and contacted via e-mail, Thomas Nguyen got back to me quick and directed me to a sales specialist but no reply. Tried once more and got ignored.

Tried a few other methods with no luck, probably too busy with the Scrypt ASIC stuff so this is my last resort. I like what you're doing so I wanted to show support by purchasing from you first if possible.

Thanks

I've also asked for pictures twice on the forums, one person on their website chat and via email. Not ONE of them have provided any. Those types of questions go ignored or they refer me to their email support service, where those emails also go ignored.

You wan chili saus?

It's always a pleasure doing business with GAW, extremely decent of you guys to sort out the rusty 5-chip issue despite it being in no way your fault, this is why I don't buy from anywhere else. Cool

Hey Josh, I'd like to throw out an idea for you. IF GAW could put out a photo(s) of the day (during these next few crazy weeks). Maybe a behind the scenes, maybe hardware....everybody likes pictures.

Agreed! Some photos would be awesome to help us through the last remaining few days anticipation before we get our hands on our new GAW miners. Grin

Can you plug in multiple devices into a zenminer? I've got 4 falcons coming and wondered if I had to use 4 zenminers or just 1 via a powered USB hub.

Do we know if the "ZenMiner" is just a raspberry Pi with custom software or if it's a completely different hardware device?

Also I don't know if this has been answered before, but will the Blackwidows have a dedicated power supply that comes with them (Like BFL jalapenos used a DC power supply that was packaged with it) or will they be more like the gridseed miners where I will need to purchase an ATX power supply and rig it to fit the gawminer?

http://www.gawminers.com/zencontroller-by-zenminer/

Edit:

So Gawminers now has chat support on their website so I asked these questions to Luke, who responded very quickly to my inquires

1. The ZenController by Zenminer is a raspberry Pi with custom software so that it runs on the cloud for you.
2. The Black Widow will require its own ATX PSU with 4 PCI-E cables to run it.

Will hosted A2s be back anytime soon?

Pre-orders for next week are already up!

I see the A2s under Innosilicon but no A2s at all under hosting.

Here they are

The A2 mini - I want that! Oh well, I do have a couple Widow's coming soon.

Thanks! We think so too

To meet our timeline, they put it on a RPI for us.

In the future, the zencontroller will become a embedded device

Thanks for the information.

A quick tip for anyone who hasn't used a Raspberry Pi before: If you're going to connect one than one (Non-USB powered miner like the ones GAW is selling) to the Raspberry Pi; use a powered USB hub between the Pi and the miners. Although it should be ok without a hub; I've found it to be a lot more stable with a powered hub.

The Raspberry Pi's themselves are powered over USB, and due to this they can't put much juice out of the 2 USB ports (Pretty much 1/4 power of a normal USB port).

This is especially important if you're going to use one of the USB stick miners that draw all of their power from the USB port.

You do realize he said that you are not required to use their software (but you get it for free anyways) and that there are already working versions of other mining software which are compatible with their miners, right? Wow that was a long sentence! What ticks you off about this?

Thanks, and to add to that.

One the the majority things that takes the time of our tech support time is people using custom software on their controllers that do not interact with the hardware correctly.

Customer will still be able to do that, but we will just not be able to provide support for that software.

Part of the reason we choose to work with zenminer is to be able to fully support the hardware. To offer upgraded firmware, even over-clocking settings, etc.

This will allow us to provide enhanced support for our hardware and reduce support issues, even make support faster. For example, if we discover a bug, we have the ability to provide a patch to zenminer and they can push the update to all the controllers!

I am with GAW on this one thanks JOSH. We getting power supplies with these PIs. Thanks for everything including the zencontroller.

Think of it like your OS. You can always run open source if you want (for disclosure we never said we supported), or you can run an supported OS and receive updates and the convenience of someone else managing creating updates, etc.

Everyone is different, the good news is you have both choices

Great. That's exactly how I figured it would work.

Very similar to everything else in the tech world. You have the ability to root/jailbreak your iPhone/Android, but if you do the hardware manufacturer does cover your goof-ups. Pretty standard stuff here.

Somewhere, someway, the community will get involved and make some pretty good software that runs GAW miners, should you choose to use it.

Thats 100% correct. Its not a new concept

...and here you had us thinking you were turning the mining world upside down. =P I'm so disappointed!

In this example, there are many companies (zenminer, apple, etc) that are much smarter then me that have already figured this out
